PROGRAMS AND RESOURCES
Providence College has designed dozens of essential campus resources that are integral to the growth and success of PC students — many designed specifically
HORIZONS PROGRAM
The Horizons Program helps to fulfill the college’s commitment to give students the tools to navigate and acclimate to the campus culture while maintaining their identities and cultural values. It supports multicultural students, first year through senior year, and includes a weekend retreat in the fall semester.
The PC1G Initiative is designed to help first-generation students and their families find resources and programs, and have their questions answered. To raise awareness for the first-generation student experience, members of the community are invited to celebrate First-Generation College Student Day each November and PC1G Senior Celebration each May.
PMP builds community, offers social and academic support, and creates a reflective environment for students. The PMP program teaches students how to navigate the college community, balance relationships between home and campus, and create a network of support from peers and faculty.

“Providence provides all the value and possibility of city life without the crowds and frenzied energy of a larger city. To me, this makes the theater, art, food, opportunities to experience new things, and the diversity you have in an urban area all more accessible.”
